Opinion:An optically powerful blade, very small and pocket-sized, very light, perfect AF in all conditions. There's nothing else to add, a "must have" lens with which you can do anything. By the way, with the Macro adapter mounted on top, it also allows for really interesting close-up shots. The micro 4/3 system hasn't offered new lenses for a long time: but do we really need them?
Opinion:I have been using the m.4/3 system for many years, since the release of the Lumix Gf1. I currently have a G9 and a GX9 with a plethora of lenses. I don't photograph much anymore and when I do I like to shoot light, with minimal equipment. I almost always carry the GX9 with the 20mm 1.7. Everything goes in a small bag with other things, such as a cell phone, car keys, reading glasses and more. The Zuiko m. 45mm invariably finds a place, small and light as it is. I mainly use the 20mm, but if you need him he's there. He never risks staying at home. They have already written that it fully reflects the philosophy of the system and it is true. Is it cone when the Leica III was used at a time when bioptics and 4x5 folding and TA performance reigned? What about bokeh? But who cares, which isn't to say it's not a great lens, regardless of the price. In an m.4/3 layette you need to have him, or his Panasonic counterpart.
Opinion:Lens purchased at 180 euros as new from a well-known second-hand resale chain to try a medium portrait canvas on m43. In my opinion, for the price paid, he does everything he has to do and he does it very well. Used on a GX9 it is a perfect match for portraits, the size and weight are just right for the smallest bodies in the m43 world. The yield is very good already at full aperture and at this focal length you can easily get a nice bokeh effect. I use it during events, evenings with friends or in museums, where it allows you to photograph paintings and statues without getting too close and raising the ISO too much. I do not find real negative points for this goal, perhaps the absence of tropicalization, but given the areas in which I use it I do not feel the lack. That said, in my opinion this is a focal length much less versatile than those ranging between 28 mm and 50 mm equivalent and I have hardly been able to use it in areas other than those described. I did some tests with the street, and although the results are not bad at all, they are difficult to obtain, you need a lot of space. Therefore, it is my least used lens and for my areas of use it is probably replaceable by a zoom. Rating: 9
Opinion:the 45 for its characteristics I would title it as PRO! In fact, a 90 that allows you to play between portraits, macro and street with ease. Paired with the MK-5 III, it returns over-the-top photos. No vignetting, does not distort, the colors are alive and saturated. Given its F of 1.8 it proved to be an excellent ally in night photos despite the micro 4: 3 sensor is not really voted to this type of shot. Vote 10.
Opinion:I saw it used several times in some weddings and I decided to take it. Photographers are not crazy, if they use it at weddings there is a reason and in fact it is an exceptional lens. At a ridiculous price moreover, used at 150 € still with films. Excellent yield and sharpness. Very small to keep in your pocket. Highly recommended!
